  • Initial Impressions - 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    By -

    Just purchased with under 55k on the odometer. Love that LSS supercharged motor! Handles fine for the barge that it is. Comfortable, tons of room front and back, has leather and sunroof, CD, etc....but Im still wishing for heated seats and a CD CHANGER. Ive heard GM made one thats compatible with the single CD/cassette/AM-FM stereo, guess Ill look on Ebay for one!

  • Too Soon Gone but Not Forgotten - 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    By -

    I like the car, used it mostly for work as a salesman. Didnt have a lot of problems over the years. Id buy another if they were still being made. Probably should have purchased a new one prior to its phase out but could not justify selling a perfectly good automobile.

  • Fun to drive. - 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    By -

    The Olds Eighty-eight is a great highway car! It is very stable at high speeds, has good acceleration, is comfortable, and has acceptable gas mileage considering the horsepower. Like all sporty cars, this is not the most maintenance-free Ive owned. That is not to say it left me stranded on the side of the road, it just needed attention periodically; lots of little things quit working properly. Overall a good second car, and a great family vacation car.

  • Uncomfortable Seats - 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    By -

    Overall this is a great car, but it has terrible seats in the front. My cars driver side seat tilt is stuck with a bad motor. It is also a little hard to steer when parking. Other than that, this car has a good ride and gets good gas millage.

    Bought it with 112000 miles on it, doesnt burn any oil, gets about 30 on the highway, 22-25 in town, lots of power, quiet, smooth ride. Its just a great car.

  • Long live the 88 - 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    By -

    I bought this car with 160,000 miles on it, it now has 190,000 and is still going strong. It leaks a little oil but burns none. I have never have to add any between oil changes (3,000mi.). It is very quick for a big car with a V6 engnie. It has a very comfortable ride. Its body roll is a bit much in a hard corner but then its not a sports car. It has been very reliable.

  • Awesome first Car - 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    By -

    This was my first car that I owned when I got my license. Gas mileage was great 28 mpg hwy with a V6 and about 16 city for a 1996 I would consider that very good especially since car these day arent getting much better mileage if they are at all better in the same class. Car was very comfortable and reliability wasnt much of an issue until I had about 200,000 miles on the car.
